Homebrew Yagulhan Species Details

These minor shapeshifters live in the mountains, and are hard, rugged, and used to the cold. They are born with slightly pointed ears and hairy arms and legs. They are able to shapeshift part or parts of their bodies into parts of animals.

Yagulhan Traits

The yagulhan have many beneficial traits, including shapeshifting, high dexterity, and resistance to the cold.

Minor Shapeshifting

The Yagulhan can change part/parts of it's body into a single attribute of an animal. (tiger claws, eagle wings, etc.) Doing so requires 1 action. The part of the animal is grown or shrunk to fit the Yagulhan's size. The Yagulhan also gains the abilities of that animal's body part. Giving itself a dragon head would shrink the head to the relative size of the Yagulhan's head, and also allow the Yagulhan to use that dragon's breath weapon.

Mountain People

The Yagulhan are mountain people, so therefore they have resistance to the cold. They are also used to long hikes and days of work, and that has made them less tiring and less susceptible to getting tired
